The first image is the startup of the regional scale analysis and intervention proposal with for now the mapping of infrastructure (train, highway, airports and harbours) and basic urbanization. This is one part of a collaboration with Sabina who has created the basic hydrology, land/water map (along with other information). The layers still need to be merged, but this will be done when the layers we each work on are completed. The colours used here are a proposal of what the colours could be, cmyk used here is: land: 64,49,83,43, water: 98, 75, 48, 48. Please respond to these colours and send Sabina or me proposals for testing other coulour combinations, we can test them on the files and show them. These coulours are in my favourite because of the capability of using both black and white on the basic land layer, even a third colour (i was testing redish) could be used maybe for urbanization, for now urbanization is a white transparant layer that makes grey-ish result, which is quite nice i think... So please give feedback on the colours, thank you.The second image is the part of urbanization that i'm working on, on scale put on the map, but here put next to one another. It is a mere informational gathering of city urbanization thoughout Bangladesh, but nice to see the sizes of the cities in comparison, also to Kolkota.

Wim, Sabina, thanks for uploading.
It looks like a good base.
National scale roadnetwork: this network is interrupted by the water ways, naking the trip Dhaka-Khulna very long, although the distance isn't that far. This doesn't read in the map at this point, maybe add the waterways in paler green?
The hydrology map is showing water catchments I assume? At this point it is quite empty, maybe it is interesting to show the salt water fresh water gradient as well on this map, and the difference between marshlands, fluvial zones and swamps/sundarbans
Regarding the colors, I believe the green and blue are to close to eachother as a start for a series of maps. I think it is better to start with something with a higher contrast. Also think in your color palet to lready have some bright colors, a side from the white that go well with the green/blue you have chosen.
